Why You Must Go To Dee's Fight Against Heroin Show
What can you do to combat the heroin epidemic that is plaguing Long Island? Rock on down to Dee's Fight Against Heroin birthday benefit show on February 5 at Shaker’s Pub in Oakdale, New York! All of the money generated by the show goes to Michael’s HOPE. Michael’s HOPE (Heroin & Opiate Prevention Education) is “a non-profit organization focused on holding community events and assemblies in high/middle schools to raise awareness on the current heroin epidemic.” Party for a good cause with local favorite bands like Enemy Of The State, I Dreamt the Sea, Reign of Terror, Jungle Gypsy, Ziana, and Felix. Enjoy great music while spreading awareness about heroin addiction!
Dee wanted to help the community, so for her birthday, she and her friends gave us a present: a chance to stop heroin in its tracks! Admission is $10 for people 18 to 20 and $8 for individuals over the age of 21. Your dollars couldn’t be going to a better cause. Paul Maffetone, the founder, named Michael’s HOPE after his brother, Michael Maffetone, who died from an overdose in 2012. Michael’s HOPE promotes “education” as “the foundation to recovery, not only for the abuser but for the families and communities as well.” The more friends you bring, the more you are helping Michael’s HOPE fund future classes and free NARCAN trainings that can literally save lives. Michael’s HOPE seeks to create safer spaces for struggling addicts, their families, and those who lost their loved ones to heroin addiction. When you attend this show, you further their agenda of promoting widespread understanding for the sake of saving lives. By reaching out to the community (especially the younger generations), we can shut down heroin for good. Not only will there be tons of groovy swag like bracelets and shirts, but you will also have the chance to win a free guitar! Knowledge is power. Unite with an audience to combat a problem that has been ravaging our scene for far too long. #Real #MichaelsHOPE #EnemyOfTheState #IDreamtTheSea #ReignOfTerror #JungleGypsy #Ziana #Felix Visit our shop and subscribe.
